What to the atoms in group 2, 6
and 7 form?13. Metals for m___________ ions and non-metals form __________
ions14. What is covalent bonding- describe it in detail.
1. Two or more elements chemically bonded together2. bubbles/fizzing, colour change, temperature change or a precipitate (solid) is formed3. electrons
4. Two 5. Eight
6. A negative ion.An ion is a CHARGED ATOM BECAUSE IT HAS EITHER LOST OR GAINED ELECTRONS7. A positive ion8. It is zero!9. The metallic bond is the force of attraction
between these free electrons and metal ions.10. The metal atom loses its outer shell electrons to become a positive ion. The force of attraction between the electrons (neg) and the positive ions.
11. Ionic bonds form when a metal reacts with a non-metal. Metals form positive ions (because the donate their electron to the non-metal atom); non-metals form negative ions (because they gain an electron from the metal atom). So now both the metal atom and the non-metal atom are ions as they have less/more electrons than they normally do. Ionic bonds are the electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions.
12. Group 2 = + 2 ionsGroup 6 = -2 ions (it is easier to gain two than lose 6)Group 7= -1 ions (gain one more to get a full outer shellGroup 8= do not form ions as they have a full outer shell
13. Metals form positive ions (lost electrons) and non-metals form negative ions (gain electrons)14. Shared pair of electrons (in the exam you must say all of this statement to gain two marks).
It occurs between two non-metals to form a covalent molecule. It is their outer electrons that are shared.

Chapter 2- structures and properties
1. Describe how ionic compounds form giant ionic lattices.2. Why do ionic substances conduct electricity when moltenor in
solution but not when solid?3. What are the two types of covalent structures?4. Describe simple covalent molecules 5. Describe giant covalent structures6. Describe giant metallic structures7. What is a polymer?8. How are polymers formed?9. What is the difference between thermosoftening and
thermosetting polymers?10. What is nanoscience?11. What is a nanoparticle?12. What are the advantages and disadvantages of nanoscience?
1. bonding: between a metal and a non-metal which lose and gain electrons respectively to form an ionic compound. Held together by strong electrostatic forces of attraction between positive ions and negative ions. Structure: forms a regular structure known as a giant ionic lattice.
2. Because it is only when they are molten or in solution do they have free electrons, therefore can carry charge and conduct electricity4. Covalent bonding: shared pair of electrons Simple covalent structure properties:a) DON’T CONDUCT ELECTRICITY: no free electrons and no
ions so they don't conduct electricity.b) LOW MELTING AND BOILING POINTS: This is because the
weak intermolecular forces break down easily.
Hydrogen, ammonia, methane and water are also simple molecules with
covalent bonds. All have very strong bonds between the atoms, but much
weaker forces holding the molecules together. When one of these
substances melts or boils, it is these weak 'intermolecular forces' that break,
not the strong covalent bonds. Simple molecular substances are gases,
liquids or solids with low melting and boiling points.
3. Simple molecules and giant covalent structures.Simple molecules consist of a small number of atoms joined by covalent bonds. For example, water and carbon dioxide exist as simple molecules The covalent bonds joining the atoms together in a simple molecule are strong. However, the intermolecular forces between simple molecules are weak.
5. Giant covalent structures contain a lot of non-metal atoms, each joined to adjacent atoms by covalent bonds. The atoms are usually arranged into giant regular lattices - extremely strong structures because of the many bonds involved. The graphic shows the molecular structure of diamond and graphite: two allotropes of carbon, and of silica (silicon dioxide).PROPERTIES: a) Very high melting and boiling points: because a lot of strong
covalent bondsb) ONLY SOME CONDUCT ELECTRICITY- e.g. graphite- because
it has free electrons.Examples: diamond, graphite, silicon dioxide, Buckminsterfullerene
6. Metals form giant structures in which electrons in the outer shells of the metal atoms are free to move. The metallic bond is the force of attraction between these free electrons and metal ions. Metallic bonds are strong, so metals can maintain a regular structure and usually have high melting and boiling points.Metals are good conductors of electricity and heat, because the free electrons carry a charge or heat energy through the metal. The free electrons allow metal atoms to slide over each other, so metals are malleable and ductile.
7. Many monomers bonded together8. Polymers have properties which depend on the chemicals they are made from, and the conditions in which they are made. For example, poly(ethene) can be low-density or high-density depending upon the catalyst and reaction condition used to make it
9. Thermosoftening polymers soften when heated and can be shaped when hot. The shape will harden when it is cooled, but can be reshaped when heated up again. Poly(ethene) is a thermosoftening polymer. Its tangled polymer chains can uncoil and slide past each other, making it a flexible material. Thermosetting polymers have different properties to thermosoftening polymers. Once moulded, they do not soften when heated and they cannot be reshaped. Vulcanised rubber is a thermoset used to make tyres. Its polymer chains are joined together by cross-links, so they cannot slide past each other easily.
10. A nanometre, 1 nm, is one billionth of a metre (or a millionth of a millimetre). Nanoparticles range in size from about 100 nm down to about 1 nm. They are typically the size of small molecules, and far too small to see with a microscope.Properties and uses of nanoparticlesNanoparticles have a very large surface area compared with their volume, so they are often able to react very quickly. This makes them useful as catalysts to speed up reactions. They can, for example, be used in self-cleaning ovens and windows.Nanoparticles also have different properties to the same substance in normal-sized pieces. For example, titanium dioxide is a white solid used in house paint and certain sweet-coated chocolates. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles are so small that they do not reflect visible light, so cannot be seen. They are used in sun screens to block harmful ultraviolet light without appearing white on the skin.
11. Very tiny particles/nanoparticles range in size from about 100 nm down to about 1 nm.12. Nanoparticles are used in products that are currently available.sports equipment: nanoparticles are added to materials to make them stronger whilst often being lighter. They have been used in tennis rackets, golf clubs and shoesclothing: silver nanoparticles have been added to socks. This stops them from absorbing the smell of sweaty feet as the nanoparticles have antibacterial propertieshealthcare: nanoparticles are used in sunscreens. They offer protection and can be rubbed in so there are no white marks.Harmful effectsThere are some concerns that nanoparticles may be toxic to people. They may be able to enter the brain from the bloodstream and cause harm. Some people think more tests should take place before nanoparticles of a material are used on a wider scale.

6. What is the difference between empirical formula and molecular formula of a compound?
7. What is a mole?
8. How can you calculate moles?
9. What is a reversible reaction? Give an example.
10. What are food additives and how can we identify them?
11. Describe methods of instrumental analysis to detect substances in a sample mixture
1. proton= 1, neutron= 1, electron= 1/1849 (0.0005)2. proton= +, neutron= 0, electron= -!
3. Na- mass number= 23, atomic/proton number= 11 4. Relative atomic mass is of the element (Ar) e.g. Na, the Ar= 23, Cl, the Ar= 35.5. Relative formula mass (Mr) of NaCl is (23+ 35.5= 58.5)
5.
Mr of MgO= (24+16)= 40Ar of Mg is 24.Percentage of magnesium in magnesium oxide= 24/40= 60%
6. Empirical formula is the simplest form of the molecular formula. For example,
Molecular formula: C6H12
Empirical formula: CH2 (divided by 6)
7. One mole is a substance contains 6.02 x 1023
This number is known as the Avogadro constant.9. In a reversible reaction, the products can react to produce the original reactants again.For example,
ammonium chloride ammonia + hydrogen chloride
The equation shows that ammonium chloride (a white solid) can break down to form ammonia and hydrogen chloride. It also shows that ammonia and hydrogen chloride (colourless gases) can react to form ammonium chloride again.
10. A food additive is a substance added to food to make it look or taste better. The food additives that are legal to use in Europe are given E numbers. Paper chromatography can be used to detect substances in food. It works because some compounds dissolve better than others in particular solvents and so they travel up the paper differently and can therefore be compared. Instrumental analysis is faster and more accurate than paper chromatography.
11. Instrumental analysis- Many substances are made up of a mixture of compounds.- So scientists have thought of a way called gas-chromatography and
mass spectrometry to separate the substances.- First they use gas chromatography to separate substances (like paper
chromatography but the substances need to be vaporised (turned into gas)
- Then pass the separated substances through a mass spectrometer so the elements and compounds can be identified. The pattern of peaks it produces will help you identify what the element or compound is.

Chapter 4- Rates of reaction1. What do we mean by the rate of a chemical reaction?2. How can we measure the rate of a chemical reaction in the lab?3. What affects the rate of chemical reaction?4. What is the collision theory?5. How does surface area affect the rate of a chemical reaction?6. How does temperature affect the rate of a chemical reaction?7. How does a catalyst affect the rate of a chemical reaction?8. How does concentration affect the rate of a chemical reaction?9. What is the difference between an exothermic and endothermic
reaction?10. What happens in the energy transfers in a reversible reaction?11. How can we use the energy from exothermic reactions?12. How can we use the cooling effect of endothermic reactions?13. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each type of hand
warmer.
1. The phrase ‘rate of reaction’ means ‘how fast is the reaction’ or 'the speed of the reaction'.
2. It can be measured as the 'rate of formation of product' (e.g. collecting gaseous product in a syringe) or the 'rate of removal of reactant'. The speeds of reactions are very varied.
3. - Temperature- Surface area- Pressure - Concentration - Use of a catalyst
4. For a chemical reaction to occur, the reactant particles must collide. But collisions with too little energy do not produce a reaction.The particles must have enough energy for the collision to be successful in producing a reaction.The rate of reaction depends on the rate of successful collisions between reactant particles. The more successful collisions there are, the faster the rate of reaction.
5. Surface area:If a solid reactant is broken into small pieces or ground into a powder: - its surface area increases- more particles are exposed to the other reactant- there are more collisions- the rate of reaction increases
6. temperature:If the temperature is increased: - the reactant particles move more quickly- they have more kinetic energy- the particles collide more often, and more of the collisions result in a reaction- the rate of reaction increases
7. catalyst:A catalyst is a substance that can increase the rate of a reaction. The catalyst itself remains unchanged at the end of the reaction it catalyses. A catalyst speed up the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy (the minimum amount of energy needed to start a chemical reaction).
8. concentration:If the concentration of a dissolved reactant is increased, or the pressure of a reacting gas is increased: the reactant particles become more crowdedthere is a greater chance of the particles collidingthe rate of reaction increases
9.Exothermic reactionsThese are reactions that transfer energy to the surroundings. The energy is usually transferred as heat energy, causing the reaction mixture and its surroundings to become hotter. The temperature increase can be detected using a thermometer. Some examples of exothermic reactions are:burningneutralisation reactions between acids and alkalisthe reaction between water and calcium oxideEndothermic reactionsThese are reactions that take in energy from the surroundings. The energy is usually transferred as heat energy, causing the reaction mixture and its surroundings to get colder. The temperature decrease can also be detected using a thermometer. Some examples of endothermic reactions are:electrolysisthe reaction between ethanoic acid and sodium carbonatethe thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate in a blast furnace
10. Reversible reactions are where the products can react to remake the original reactants. If the forward reaction is exothermic, the reverse reaction is endothermic.The decomposition of ammonium chloride is a reversible reaction:ammonium chloride ammonia + hydrogen chlorideAmmonium chloride decomposes when it is heated, so the forward reaction is endothermic - energy must be transferred from the surroundings for it to happen. The backward reaction is exothermic -energy is transferred to the surroundings when it happens.
11. Exothermic reactions can be used for everyday purposes. For example, hand warmers and self-heating cans for drinks (such as coffee) use exothermic reactions.
12. Endothermic reactions can be used for everyday purposes. For example, certain sports injury cold packs use endothermic reactions.13. The disposable hand warmer lasts longer when activated than the
reusable warmer. However, it can only be used once. The opposite applies to the re-usable hand warmers.

12. Splitting of a compound using electricity13. By electrolysis:• aluminium oxide (bauxite) is melted / made liquid• aluminium ions are attracted to the negative electrode• at the negative electrode aluminium is formed oraluminium ions gain electrons• oxide ions are attracted to the positive electrode• oxygen is formed at the positive electrode or oxideions lose electrons
• the oxygen reacts with carbon to make carbon dioxide orcarbon dioxide formed at positive electrode.
Aluminium oxide has a very high melting point (over 2,000°C), so it would be expensive to melt it. Instead, it is dissolved in molten cryolite, an aluminium compound with a lower melting point than aluminium oxide. The use of cryolite reduces some of the energy costs involved in extracting aluminium.
14.Brine is a solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) and water (H2O). The process of electrolysis involves using an electric current to bring about a chemical change and make new chemicals. The electrolysisof brine is a large-scale process used to manufacture chlorinefrom salt. Two other useful chemicals are obtained during the process, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen (H2).It is important that the chlorine and sodium hydroxide produced in the process are separated they react when they come into contact with each other. Chorine: disinfectant (swimming pools)Sodium hydroxide: manufacture of paperHydrogen: manufacture of hydrochloric acid and potential as a pollution-free fuel
15.Electrolysis is used to electroplate objects. This is useful for coating a cheaper metal with a more expensive one, such as copper or silver.How it worksThe negative electrode should be the object that is to be electroplatedThe positive electrode should be the metal that you want to coat the object withThe electrolyte should be a solution of the coating metal, such as its metal nitrate or sulfateHere are two examples.Electroplating with silverThe object to be plated, such as a metal spoon, is connected to the negative terminal of the power supply. A piece of silver is connected to the positive terminal. The electrolyte is silver nitrate solution.
